UK visitor visa sponsor

I recommend you read this question UK visa refusal on V 4.2 a + c (and sometimes 'e') and this Guide https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/827480/Visit-guidance-v9.0ext.pdf which should answer many of your questions.

A few things to bear in mind:

  • UKVI specifically advise against booking flights until the visa decision is known.

  • Do not send the person you are inviting money beforehand. ECO’s typically tend to view this as ‘funds parking’ (see the question I linked to above for a full explanation of this term).

  • the fact that you don’t have an income may count against you. Proportionality of intended spend to financial circumstances is important. Planning to spend a chunk of savings without a source of income may not be viewed as reasonable.

  • UK visitor visas are usually multi-entry but the holder will still need a visa to visit countries where their citizenship does not qualify them for visa-free entry. Applying for a visitor visa for Schengen, for example, must be done from the applicant’s country of residence.

  • Bank statements don’t need to be translated but all other documents must be in English or translated in accordance with the rules (see the Guide I linked to for more information).
